NVME-GET-FEATURE(1) NVMe Manual NVME-GET-FEATURE(1) NAME nvme-get-feature - Gets an NVMe feature, returns applicable results SYNOPSIS nvme get-feature <device> [--namespace-id=<nsid> | -n <nsid>] [--feature-id=<fid> | -f <fid>] [--uuid-index=<uuid-index> | -U <uuid_index>] [--data-len=<data-len> | -l <data-len>] [--sel=<select> | -s <select>] [--raw-binary | -b] [--cdw11=<cdw11> | -c <cdw11>] [--human-readable | -H] [--changed | -C] [--output-format=<fmt> | -o <fmt>] [--verbose | -v] [--timeout=<timeout> | -t <timeout>] DESCRIPTION Submits an NVMe Get Feature admin command and returns the applicable results. This may be the feature's value, or may also include a feature structure if the feature requires it (ex: LBA Range Type). The <device> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe character device (ex: /dev/nvme0), or a namespace block device (ex: /dev/nvme0n1). On success, the returned feature's structure (if applicable) may be returned in one of several ways depending on the option flags; the structure may parsed by the program and printed in a readable format if it is a known structure, displayed in hex, or the raw buffer may be printed to stdout for another program to parse. OPTIONS -n <nsid>, --namespace-id=<nsid> Retrieve the feature for the given nsid. This is optional and most features do not use this value. -f <fid>, --feature-id=<fid> The feature id to send with the command. Value provided should be in hex. -s <select>, --sel=<select> Select (SEL): This field specifies which value of the attributes to return in the provided data: +--------+------------------------+ | Select | Description | +--------+------------------------+ | 0 | Current | +--------+------------------------+ | 1 | Default | +--------+------------------------+ | 2 | Saved | +--------+------------------------+ | 3 | Supported capabilities | +--------+------------------------+ | 4-7 | Reserved | +--------+------------------------+ -U <uuid-index>, --uuid-index=<uuid-index> UUID Index of the feature -l <data-len>, --data-len=<data-len> The data length for the buffer returned for this feature. Most known features do not use this value. The exception is LBA Range Type -c <cdw11>, --cdw11=<cdw11> The value for command dword 11, if applicable. -b, --raw-binary Print the raw feature buffer to stdout if the feature returns a structure. -H, --human-readable This option will parse and format many of the bit fields into human-readable formats. -C, --changed This option will show feature changed. -o <fmt>, --output-format=<fmt> Set the reporting format to normal, json or binary. Only one output format can be used at a time. -v, --verbose Increase the information detail in the output. -t <timeout>, --timeout=<timeout> Override default timeout value. In milliseconds. EXAMPLES • Retrieves the feature for Number of Queues, or feature id 7: # nvme get-feature /dev/nvme0 -f 7 • The following retrieves the feature for the LBA Range Type, which implicitly requires a buffer and will be printed to the screen in human readable format: # nvme get-feature /dev/nvme0 -f 3 • Retrieves the feature for the some vendor specific feature and specifically requesting a buffer be allocate for this feature, which will be displayed to the user in as a hex dump: # nvme get-feature /dev/nvme0 -f 0xc0 -l 512 Get feature with UUID index # nvme get-feature /dev/nvme0 -f 0xc0 -l 512 -U 0x1 • The following retrieves the feature for the LBA Range Type, which implicitly requires a buffer and will be saved to a file in its raw format: # nvme get-feature /dev/nvme0 -f 3 --raw-binary > lba_range.raw It is probably a bad idea to not redirect stdout when using this mode.
